Abstract
Disclosed herein is a mobile x-ray imaging apparatus having an improved structure to prevent breakage of or damage to an x-ray detector. One or more damping units are installed at base plates of one or more slots. The one or more damping units minimize an impact that may be applied to one or more x-ray detectors in a process of storing the one or more x-ray detector in the one or more slots.
Claims20
A mobile x-ray imaging apparatus comprising:
- a slot configured to store an x-ray detector;
- a first damping unit installed at a base plate of the slot and configured to absorb an impact on the x-ray detector when the x-ray detector is inserted in the slot;
- a connector installed at the base plate and electrically connected to a terminal of the x-ray detector when the x-ray detector is inserted in the slot;
- and
- a connector magnetic body installed near the connector, the connector magnetic body is configured to:
- interact with a detector magnetic body included in the x-ray detector;
- and
- fix the x-ray detector when the x-ray detector is inserted in the slot.
